How many barrels of raw alcohol were on 'Mary Celeste'?

One thousand seven hundred one (1,701) is the number of raw alcohol-filled barrels on the derelict, ghost, mystery ship Mary Celsete. The figure represents the total listed by New York-based German merchants Meissner, Ackersmann and Company for insurance purposes. The cargo was found to include nine empty barrels by the time of court proceedings in Gibraltar and shipment delivery in Genoa, Italy.
